Chapter 9 - Sam or Sammie?

Chapter 9 - Sam Or Sammie

I slowly opened my eyes after I finished the song. I tried my hardest to sing as bad as I possibly could, but I just couldn’t. As soon as I started singing, it all came back to me. My love for singing. My love for the song. Everything. I wasn’t able to sing my worst. Instead, I sang my best. I was so angry with myself. But I had hope. I had hope that the boys would think I was terrible and that they wouldn’t want me on the album anyways.

When I opened my eyes I had 4 eyes staring at me. Harry wasn’t looking at me, instead he was looking at the boys with what looked like a confused expression upon his face. I looked carefully at the other four boys, trying to read what they thought of my singing.

Niall was looking me dead in the eyes. He had a smile from ear to ear and looked as though he was daydreaming.

Louis had the same look, however he seemed to have a little bit of jealousy in his eyes after he followed me when I looked at Niall.

Zayn looked as though he was in a trance. Like someone had cast a spell on him. I raised my eyebrows and shook my head and turned to Liam.

He had a smile on his face, however it was a confused smile. As though he didn’t know what sort of a smile to give. I didn’t quite understand it.

“So…” I began after a few minutes of pure silence and odd facial expressions. “What did you think? And boys, I know I’m hot but you can stop staring.” I laughed and all I saw was Liam, Louis, Zayn and Niall’s faces turn red. They were blushing. Why were they blushing? I’m so confused!

“You were incredible!” Harry spoke up whilst the other boys composed themselves.

“You sound amazing, love!!” Louis piped in.

“Yes, you did.” Zayn glared at Louis, and Louis returned it.

“Cas, I think it’s safe to say we all agree that you sounded amazing!” Harry said, trying to remove the tension building up in the room.

“Ahhh… thanks?” I replied more as a question. I looked at Harry, giving him a ‘what the fuck is going on’ look. He shrugged his shoulders and I sat back down next to him.

“So, now that we know you have an amazing voice. Will you please sing with us on our album?!” Louis said again.

“I dunno. I can’t say I really want to be associated with you guys. And I’m not even famous. Wouldn’t you much rather like a really famous person on the album to give you some new fans and stuff?” I looked at each of the boys before Zayn spoke up.

“No. I speak on behalf of all the lads when I say, who cares that you’re not famous. You have such a better voice and are so much more talented than any singer on this planet. You are yourself and are not fake, which gives you a leg up in the competition. We don’t want anyone else but you.” He smiled at me when he finished. I smiled back so I wouldn’t look like a total bitch.

“Yeah, uhhhh, thanks?” I was still a bit confused as to why they were giving me all these compliments.

“So will you do it?” Niall spoke for the first time after I had sung.

“I’ll have to think about it. I’m not sure. And to be honest, if I didn’t give you an answer now, it would be yes but only so I could make my Dad happy. Not because I actually wanted to.”

“That’s perfectly fine. Take as much time as you need. Simon said that the song that we would sing together wouldn’t be recorded for another month or so. You have all the time in the world. But we have to finish the song before your week is up. So will you at least help us with our songs, and decide on the singing part later?” Liam looked at me with a hopeful smile. All the boys looked at me with a hopeful smile.

“Umm….” I began, not really sure what I actually wanted. “I guess we could do that.” I finally said. The boys jumped up and pulled me into a group hug. Each of them kissing me on the forehead or cheek. I started giggling before I playfully pushed or hit them all and we sat back down.

My phone started ringing and I stood up walking away from the boys a little bit to answer. I looked at the caller I.D. and smiled widly.

“SAM!!!!! I HAVE MISSED YOU SO MUCH! OMG! HOW ARE YOU BABE?! HOW’S WORK?!!!” I yelled excitedly. I was looking at the boys the whole time and I saw them going from a smile to a frown to a jealous stare. They looked at me like that for my entire conversation.

“Ok calm down Cas. I’m good. I miss you too. Works ok except for the 5am wake ups and the long hours hammering and cutting wood. Why does my Dad have to be a builder?! Anyways how are you! I see you haven’t killed yourself yet! That’s a good sign. Which celeb are you working with?!” I could hear the smile on her face.

“I’m working with them for the week.” I looked at them and glared at them. I then walked into a bedroom, closed the door and made my way into a bathroom so they couldn’t hear me anymore.

“Ok why don’t you sound so pissed off like you normally do when I talk about them? Wait do you like them now? OMG have you fallen for one of them?!!!”

“NO SAM! EWWWW!! No it’s just…” I trailed off, I didn’t really know what to say.

“It’s just what? Spill it girly!”

“I think Zayn, Louis and Niall like me, and Liam likes me but is unsure whether he should like me.” I spoke really fast but I knew Sammie would understand what I was saying.

“Why do you think that?”

“Well, I sang for them today, and I closed my eyes to sing and when I opened them they were all looking at me and smiling like they were a proud boyfriend. And when I saw them today they weren’t mad at me for the prank I pulled and they weren’t acting the way they did last time. They smiled, talked to me like we were best friends even when I blew them off. And they wanted my opinion on their songs.”

“Well you don’t know for sure if they like you. They were probably just in a trance at how amazing your voice is, hell I was when I heard you sing!” I laughed lightly at what she said. “Just give it time. You don’t know anything for sure. If they do like you, and you like them, then make a move. If not, then don’t worry about it, it’s only for 2 weeks.” I knew that Sammie was right. She’s always right when it comes to boys.

“You’re right Sammie. Thanks. Hey I have to go. But can I come over to your place tomorrow? I need your help in deciding what I should do.”

“Sure babe. Nothing serious I hope?”

“Nah, it’s just work related.”

“Oh, ok then. Sure! You can come for dinner. I’ll let Mum know. Bye babe!! Love you lots and lots!” I started walking out of the bathroom before I replied.

“I love you too babe. See you tomorrow Sam. Can’t wait to see you tomorrow!”

I walked to the bedroom door and opened it to 5 boys staring at me.

“Who’s Sam then?” Louis almost yelled in my face.

“Is he your boyfriend?!” Niall yelled over Louis and stared at him.

“Why didn’t you tell us you had a boyfriend?!!” Zayn yelled even louder and all three boys stared at me.
